"hbo spent 223 million to build 'Pacific War', which is about to debut!"
"Nine years after 'Band of Brothers', 'War in the Pacific' once again set off a frenzy of war genre works!"
"Hanks and Spielberg join forces again to create a brutal war story."
"With a three-year production cycle, 'War in the Pacific' is finally about to officially premiere."
"Beyond classic expectations, 'War in the Pacific' carries hbo's self-improvement ambitions."
"'Full of confidence,' from Steven Spielberg's manifesto."
...
The day after the premiere ended, the news about the "Pacific War" spread overwhelmingly. Hbo plus Tom and Steven's signs, not to mention the "Band of Brothers" in front of Zhuyu, "Pacific War". "War" has been attracting attention from the stage of project establishment. After going through the twists and turns of adapting the script in the early stage, the controversy in the mid-term funding preparation, and the difficulty in forming a cast in the later stage, after more than three years of long preparations, the TV series is finally about to debut, you can It is no exaggeration to say that the expectations have indeed broken the table.
The grand occasion of the premiere last night made people look forward to it.
"With an inexperienced rookie starring, can 'Pacific War' reproduce the style of 'Band of Brothers'?"
"Renly Hall: The newcomer to the cast like a comet."
"Tom Hanks: Renly is the central character of the whole series."
...
Comparatively speaking, the attention focused on Renly was really limited. Referring to the experience of "Band of Brothers", in order to show the authenticity and balance of the crew, "Pacific War" also did not use big-name stars, so almost all the actors were selected with unfamiliar faces, and there was no essential difference between newcomers and seventh-tier actors.
What's more, "War in the Pacific" is a group show and a TV series. Even if Tom and Steven jointly create a production, the focus of attention is destined not to stay on the actors.
Even Damien Lewis of "Band of Brothers" was not able to spark too much discussion back then. In fact, after the broadcast of "Band of Brothers", no one of the actors was able to immediately become popular, because the success of the series came from the whole, not the individual.
This time, at least a few media outlets mentioned Renly's name alone, trying to attract the audience's attention from different angles. This is the benefit of Renly's stunning performance at the premiere.
There is no doubt that the major media have left their place for the "Pacific War" on important pages. The North American film market in the spring has been slightly depressed, and now there is finally a blockbuster work on the stage, people are naturally reluctant to take it lightly. Let go.
On imdb, the world's largest online database of movies, actors, and television, "War in the Pacific" has become a hot topic before it even started broadcasting, setting off a wave of attention. Since the episode has not been broadcast yet, imdb does not have an open scoring system, nor an open discussion system, but just updated hbo's official trailer and detailed shooting information.
Despite this, this still did not stop the enthusiasm of netizens. On the list of the most anticipated works, "Pacific War" has soared to the third place, only behind the popular works "Toy Story 3" and "Toy Story 3" in this summer. Inception", leaving behind "Iron Man 2", "Twilight 3", "Shrek 4" and other works, showing an unimaginable appeal.
Just as "The Shawshank Redemption" dominated imdb's Best 250 Movie List for over a decade, imdb's Best 250 Series list was dominated by "Band of Brothers" for nearly a decade; even more incredible," "The Shawshank Redemption" dominated with a high score of 9.2, but "Band of Brothers" scored as high as 9.5 among more than 240,000 people, which can definitely be called a miracle among miracles. The series "Band of Brothers" has become a magical drama in the minds of the audience.
Now, the brother drama "War in the Pacific" of "Band of Brothers" is about to be broadcast, and the audience's anticipation and enthusiasm have completely exploded.
Not only imdb, but also on the discussion board of the Yahoo community, the discussion about the "Pacific War" has also broken the table. Thanks to the upcoming episode of the episode, it has awakened the enthusiasm of countless "Band of Brothers" fans, and it has become a The 24-hour hottest episode on the discussion board attracted more than 10,000 netizens to participate in the discussion.
As a set of TV series, the attention attracted by "Pacific War" has seriously exploded. In the years since the end of "Band of Brothers", it is estimated that only the grand finale of "Friends" can be compared. Whether it is The topical work "Lost" or the stunning American "Prison Break" are far from being comparable.
What's even more interesting is that "War in the Pacific" is broadcast on hbo, an over-the-air television station -- in other words, a premium channel, and not everyone in the US subscribes to hbo. In TVB, ratings and number of viewers are not what they care about. Professional reviews and feedback from subscribers are the core competitiveness. But now, "War in the Pacific" has exploded into an incredible viewing craze among audiences.
This is truly a miracle.
With much anticipation, on the evening of March 21st, "War in the Pacific" was finally officially launched!
william-taylor is one of them, and as a "Band of Brothers" fanatic, the countdown started two weeks ago and a week ago
This Friday was specially vacated, and no other activities were arranged. Even his parents knew about his "special plan" tonight-he is only eighteen years old this year, and he will not enter university until September.
"Billy, Billy." Panting, a voice rushed in from outside, and Graham-Huges almost slammed the door of the room with greetings left in his mouth, "Mrs. Taylor , Mr. Taylor, good evening."
But William didn't care about the door that groaned. Instead, he put his finger on his lips and beckoned quickly, "Turn off the lights at the door, there are still three minutes." Even his voice could not be lowered deliberately. , as if it were really in a movie theater, lest it frighten other audience members.
Graham didn't have time to wipe his sweat, he sat down next to William, then took out the popcorn and Coke in his backpack one by one, turned his head to look at William, and both of them had similar smiles in their eyes. , adjusting his sitting position on the sofa, holding the popcorn in his arms, and looking at the TV screen.
At this time, an advertisement was playing, but the two of them seemed to be watching the most wonderful movie in the world, staring at the screen intently.
William's mother walked to the door, looked at how the two of them were sitting upright, and shook her head with a smile, "You guys are too nervous, anyway, there will definitely be DVDs, or Blu-rays..."
"Mom/Mrs. Taylor!" William and Graham shouted in unison, answering them with understandingly closing the door of the room, and they both looked at the TV screen in unison again.
"It's on!" William's voice trembled a little, while Graham held his breath, his pupils seem to dilate.
Not just the Taylors, at this moment, on this Friday night, on this carnival night, on this weekend-ready night, countless families across America are choosing to stay at home, not because they are too old to miss the night life , not because work is too tired to give up going out, just to watch "Pacific War"!
In addition, in order to be able to watch the live broadcast of the drama at the first time, some people choose to go to the house of a friend who has a paid hbo channel, bring a dozen beers, invite a group of friends, gather together like a party, enjoy This special night; what's more, I went directly to the bar, the purpose is to open the bar's hbo channel, I just hope to find like-minded strangers to watch it together, just like watching football or the World Cup.
Such a grand event is being staged in every corner of the North American continent, even if it is not crowded, but it is not far off.
Later, according to statistics, the premiere ratings and audience numbers of "War in the Pacific" on this night both set a new high in the past two years, and easily broke the results achieved by "Band of Brothers" that year.
Although the TVB network led by hbo does not care about the ratings, what they care about is the overall subscriber satisfaction, and only the part of the audience who pays is what they need to pay attention to; but the ratings record created by the frequency is still astonishing. .
The ratings of American TV series are divided into two data, one is the number of viewers, and the other is the ratings. Both data have professional explanations and definitions, but a simple understanding is that the former represents how many people in the United States have watched it, and the latter The number of viewers represents what percentage of the viewing population is between the ages of 18 and 49—a common view that is the backbone of consumption.
Prior to this, hbo's ratings record was held by the finale of the classic drama "The Sopranos" aired in 2007, with 7.1 million viewers and an unbelievable 11.9 ratings. A simple horizontal reference, cable TV dramas that rely on the ratings to eat, are enough to spend more than three ratings, and it is rare to have more than five ratings.
Now, "Pacific War" has reached 5.9 million viewers, and the viewership rate has reached an astonishing 4.6. That night, it killed all TVB dramas and became the ratings champion! After the "Sopranos" that swept the nation's finale, HBO's most dazzling performance in the past two years!
It's worth mentioning that "War in the Pacific" is a mini-series, and the real money-making part of such a show is DVD sales, as well as video-on-demand, and the competition for awards at awards ceremonies. But now, this mini-series has set off a frenzy when it was launched, and even HBO, who is not bad money, is smiling.
All the signs are indicating that the "Pacific War" has started a good start, and the continuation of the "Band of Brothers" glory seems to be close at hand.
The screening of the first episode came to an end soon, and it was less than an hour long, making people feel no time stop at all. Watching the subtitles on the TV screen slide up, William's expression was a bit strange, and Graham also voted. After the doubtful gaze, William frowned and said in surprise, "...Why do you think... something is missing."
